It all depends on what the focus in. Reach is the beginning of the Master Chiefs career, and still is until its destruction. However, during the invasion of Reach, he was taking part on a mission in a space station with 2 other spartans, Linda and James, while Fred, Josh, Kelly and all the other remaining spartans were sent to defend reach against the Covenant invasion. This Spartan-259 in the trailer is not a previously designated Spartan-II before, so its presumed he is the main character and is part of Freds (Red Team Leader, Spartan-104) group of Spartans defending Reach. Or he was seperated from the team from the Orbital drop and is fighting alone with the marines, which is more than likely
All in all, the Reach war is bound to be a good game, with many heavy vehicles and ground force fighting in a large scale, enjoy!
